Odd Ones Out (MINICAT)

♡Chapter fourty-seven♡

Craig's pov

I shift in Tyler's arms when I hear voices coming from the kitchen. After listening for awhile I recognize them to be our Evan and Chelsea's.

I open my eyes slowly to see Tyler's sleeping face, he was snoring slightly making me giggle as I snuggle closer to him. Our legs were tangled together, stopping me from really moving.

I nudge Tyler's chest a bit, trying to wake him up. He groans quietly and rolls over so he was on his back. "What time is it?" He asks, his voice rough from just waking up. I glance around the room before spotting a clock hung on the wall. "5:35." He groans again as he runs a hand down his face and rubs his eyes.

"Good to see you two are awake." Evan says as he walks into the living room. I sit up and glance out the window, now seeing that most of the roads were cleared but it was still snowing out.

"When did you get here?" Tyler asks as he sits up from behind me. Chelsea walks into the room with a water bottle in hand and sits down beside Evan. "A few hours ago, Chels and I hung out while you two napped." He replies. I look to Chelsea to see her smiling. I smile back as Tyler wraps his arms around my waist. I could tell he was still tired from how tight his hold on me was. His breathing was slower then usual. I lean back against him and interlock my fingers with his as he kisses my head.

"The guys are coming tomorrow for Christmas eve." Evan says. I nod as I glance out the window again, seeing the dark clouds forming above us.

"I'm gonna shower if that's alright with you guys." I say turning to Evan. "Of course, I'm sure Tyler will show you where everything is." Tyler hums as I get off him and turn to him, waiting for him to get up.

Once he does get up he tiredly walks over to me and into his and Evan's bedroom before closing the door behind him. "You okay?" I ask, tilting my head to the side a bit as Tyler leans against the door and rubs his eyes. "Yeah, I'm just tired Craig don't worry." He replies. "Mind if I join you?" He asks. I blush slightly but nod as he pushes himself off the door and over to the bathroom.

I follow him and close the bathroom door behind me and lock it. "When was the last time we showered together?" I ask as he pulls his shirt off over his head. He looks to me and chuckles. "When we lived together." I feel my eyes soften a bit as I glance around the bathroom. "I miss those days." I trail off. Tyler suddenly grips my shoulders making me look at him. "One day Craig, I promise you. After college we're buy an apartment or maybe even a house, anywhere you want. Who knows, maybe later down the road we'll have kids running around." I smile and hug him. Tyler normally wasn't like this, at least around others but with me he acted as if he were the sweetest piece of candy out there.

"Take your clothes off." He demands. I giggle as I do what he says until I was naked.

We shower quickly, surprisely no funny business happened, probably because Tyler was too tired to do anything.

We dry off and walk back into the bedroom. We get dressed, or half dressed for Tyler since he was only wearing black sweat pants.

"Hey Ty?" He hums and turns his head to me as I walk over to him and hug him. "What you said in the bathroom, do you really want that? With me?" I ask. He chuckles before wrapping his arms around my waist. "Of course I do, why wouldn't I?" I giggle as we pull away from each other and rest our heads together. "I don't know, I still can't wrap my finger around why you're even with me." We both laugh while pulling away from each other. "I ain't going anywhere Craig." He says before kissing me.

"God how fucking long does it take for Tyler to wake up?!" Jonathan groans as he pouts and crossed his arms. "It varies, sometimes he'll wake up at the crack of dawn well others he'll be sleeping in till noon." Evan replies as he sits down beside Jonathan.
